Prayer for RENEWAL

Heavenly Father, we ask your blessing on your chosen servant, Pope Benedict XVI. Grant him the gifts of your Spirit as he guides the Universal Church.

Bless our own Bishop, Patrick Zurek, whom you have sent to shepherd the Church of Amarillo. Grant him the Graces of the Spirit to teach, govern and sanctify us on our journey to You through Christ.

Bless our Priests, Deacons, Consecrated Religious and all the Lay Faithful of the Diocese of Amarillo. As we enter into our RENEWAL through Prayer, strengthen the bonds of communion and unity of all the people that make up our diocese. Help us to accept each other truly as brothers and sisters. Enable us to show our love for your Son through our love for each other.
